Science • The Elementary Science curriculum is designed to tap the natural curiosity of our students in order to promote the development of a life long appreciation for science in their daily lives. The curriculum supports the three major disciplines of science – Earth, Life, and Physical Sciences – while reinforcing math and reading skills. Through the inquiry based approach, students learn the process of science, develop critical thinking skills, and work cooperatively in groups to solve problems. • All units of study in the elementary science curriculum emphasize the processes of science including measuring, communicating, classifying, ordering, recognizing relationships, hypothesizing, using models, interpreting data, identifying and controlling variables, and conducting experiments. • Grades 1, 2 and 3 • 1st, 2nd and 3rd grade science consists of units of Life Science, Earth Science, Physical Science and Space and Technology.

Friday Folders Folders with student work will be sent home every other Friday. Please look through the work with your child and return the folder signed each Monday. Planners should be checked nightly along with HW. Please initial the planner each night.
Birthdays Students are able to bring in treats to celebrate birthdays. The treats cannot list the first ingredient as sugar and must have an ingredients label on them. Students in the class may have nut, egg, or milk allergies, so treats sent to school must be FREE of these ingredients. Alternative goodies and the safest goodies to send are non edible items, such as, stickers, erasers, pencils, personal pencil sharpeners, highlighters, and/or small game or toy items. Thank you in advance for your cooperation in this matter.
